Queen Sirikit Park is a botanical garden in Bangkok, with a wide variety of plants, fountains and ponds. It is a good place to watch birds and enjoy a peaceful walk away from the bustle of the city.
A Tranquil Walk
If you want to get away from the crowds and bustle of the city, Queen Sirikit Park has plenty of peaceful space. There are long walks, benches where you can rest and water features to enjoy. The only interruptions are likely to come from birds, squirrels and other visitors.
Enjoy the Birds
If you love birds, Queen Sirikit Park has many species to see, from kingfishers, bee-eaters and Asian koels to crows. Bring your camera to photograph the colourful birds as they fly overhead and build nests in the trees. The best places to see birds are around the edges of the ponds.
Learn About Tree Species
The park's wide collection of trees, both foreign and local, makes it a good place to learn about different tree species. The park is well laid out, so you won't get lost even in its furthest corners.
